Music, Working out

I have been a professional musician for over 20 years. I am a singer/songwriter/guitarist. I enjoy performing live. My genre of choice is Rock/Metal/Blues/Acoustic music.

I enjoy working out. It is highly important for me to train on a daily basis, it is my therapy, just like my music. I need to do it everyday.
